Why do we need to localize and contextualize


the curriculum and the use of learning
materials?

Localization

Freedom for schools or local


authorities to adapt the curriculum
to local conditions and relating the
content of the curriculum and the
process of teaching and learning to
the local environment...(Taylor
2004)
Contextualization

Developing new skills, knowledge,


abilities, and attitudes in students
presenting new subject matter in
meaningful and relevant context:
context of previous experience, real-
life and workplace
Contextualization
• process involving procedures which
aim to establish connections between
disciplinary contents and the real life
situations experienced by students,
their characteristics as individuals and
the culture and habits of a particular
social context

• aims to promote students’ success and


knowledge and acquisition of skills
Localization and Contextualization

The curriculum is alive, it changes depending


who is implementing it, where and when it is
implemented.

In order for you to localize and contextualize the


curriculum, “you have to think of where you are
so that you can make the curriculum relevant to
you.” – Usec. Dina Ocampo

when we localize [the curriculum], we agree to it

This means that different areas in the country will


use different materials, they will use different
instruments so that they can deliver the
standards of the curriculum.
LOCALIZATION AND
CONTEXTUALIZATION

HOW?
• Localization and
contextualization can be
done in all subject areas

• Localization maximizes
materials that are locally
available
• To contextualize, teachers use
authentic materials, activities,
interests, issues, and needs from
learners’ lives

• Should create rooms for students to


pose problems and issues and
develop strategies together for
addressing them
• The localized or
contextualized curriculum is
based on local needs and
relevance for the learners
where there is flexibility and
creativity in the lessons.
• Tailor-fit the lesson
• Build on what they already
have
• Accommodate and respect
cultural, linguistic, and racial
diversity
In designing activities in the classroom using authentic
materials, it is important to set the purpose first.

• Helpful questions
o How will students interact with the material?
o What will students learn?
o Why will they learn it?
